This routine uses Kryolan TV Paint Stick for full coverage, sets with Ben Nye Super White powder, and includes baking for longevity. The steps focus on patting motions, prepping oily areas with matte eyeshadow, and a final dusting of excess powder to avoid mess.
Directions
- Start with primer, then apply the Kryolan TV Paint Stick all over your face. Use a Real Techniques Expert Face Brush to blend it in using only patting motions; avoid swiping so the coverage stays even.
- For areas that tend to crease or get oily, prep them with a matte white eyeshadow. Use a soft blending brush to pat the shadow onto those spots—this helps the foundation last longer.
- Take a powder puff and load it with Ben Nye Super White professional powder. Tap off the extra, then press the puff onto your face. Once the powder is on, pat or “beat” the area to work it into the skin. Repeat on each section, packing on plenty of powder for baking.
- Let the powder sit on your face for at least 10 minutes to let it set.
- After the time is up, use a fan brush to gently sweep away any leftover powder. If you skip this, the excess will flake off onto your clothes later.
